This paper reconsiders the position occupied by the magazines The Nanming Paradise(南溟樂園)and The Nanming Art Garden(南溟藝園)published during the Japanese colonial period in Taiwan. The Nanming Paradise and The Nanming Art Garden have always been regarded jointly as being“the cradle of Taiwanese poets”as they cultivated several members of the“Saline Land group,”an important poetry group that existed before and after WWII. However, this designation is still lacking in that previous research limits the scope of the poets and poems in these magazines to within the island of Taiwan, ignoring their relationship to contemporary literary and artistic trends beyond the island; furthermore, too much emphasis has been placed on Taiwanese authors, while the large number of Japanese authors featured in these magazines has been ignored. Therefore, by examining the newly unearthed historical materials related to The Nanming Paradise and The Nanming Art Garden, this paper achieves the three main research purposes. First, it allows The Nanming Paradise and The Nanming Art Garden to break free from the limitations of“Taiwan Island”and illustrates the magazines’connection with Japanese populist culture and the populist poetry group“Minshūshiha”(民眾詩派). Second, it overcomes the problem of only focusing on Taiwanese authors in the past by looking at this literary group - including Taiwanese and Japanese authors - as a whole, and observing their interactions with other literary groups from that period. Third, it cites actual poems to explain the views of people(民眾)reflected in these poems, their similarities with and differences from poems of Minshūshiha in Japan, and the disparities between different authors. |
